Placement of Libraries and Programs

SPARC. The placement of new libraries and programs follows the standard conventions
described in 32-bit and 64-bit Libraries. The 32-bit libraries
continue to be located in the same place, while the 64-bit libraries should be placed
in the specific architecture-dependent directory under the normal default directories.
Placement of 32-bit and 64-bit specific applications should be transparent to the
user.

This means that 32-bit libraries should be placed in
the same library directories. 64-bit libraries should be placed in the sparcv9 subdirectory under the appropriate lib directory.

Programs that require versions specific to 32-bit or 64-bit environments are
a slightly different case. These should be placed in the appropriate sparcv7 or sparcv9 subdirectory of the directory where
they are normally located.

64-bit libraries should be placed in the amd64 subdirectory under the appropriate lib directory.

Programs that require versions specific to 32-bit or 64-bit environments should
be placed in the appropriate i86 or amd64 subdirectory
of the directory where they are normally located.
